Hello? Is this thing on?

My humidor is newly overflowing with some American exceptionalism. @michaeljknowles

Has anyone made the “Poo-tomac” pun yet? Because someone obviously has to. It’s right there.

DC Water's Manager David Gadis:
"We had too many white men in charge"
"The executives should reflect the city"

DC just had the largest sewage spill in US history: 240 𝙢𝙞𝙡𝙡𝙞𝙤𝙣 gallons in one month FLOODING the Potomac

Christopher Nolan’s casting choices for “fair-haired, white-armed Helen,” “gray-eyed Athena,” & “red-haired Menelaus.” I’m sure “swift-footed Achilles” will probably be Peter Dinklage in a wheelchair or something.

This may be the first time in over 20yrs that I skip a Nolan film

When Erika Kirk spoke the words on the man who killed her husband: “That man… that young man… I forgive him.”  That moment deeply affected me.  I have struggled for over 60 years to forgive the man who killed my Dad. I will say those words now as I type: “ I forgive the man who killed my father.”
Peace be with you all.

Couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy.

BREAKING: Disney is pulling Jimmy Kimmel's late night show off air "indefinitely" after Kimmel ignited a firestorm over his comments about the alleged Charlie Kirk assassin.

This is awesome.

“These beers are a metaphor for an invitation.”

Are you sure they’re not a metaphor for something else, BudLight? If your goal was to try to make your brand seem less gay, then you may want to stay away from blatantly phallic images such as this. Thank you for the laugh though.

I know a lot of people who were rooting for the Chiefs to win just so they could make history as the first team to win three consecutive Super Bowls.
At this point I am kind of rooting for the Chiefs to make history as the first team to lose the Super Bowl in a shutout.

You’re welcome, Canada

BREAKING: Justin Trudeau announces that he is resigning as Canada’s Prime Minister

It's always been weird to me how filming an otherwise illegal act and selling the evidence makes the illegal act legal

[Joshua Ake @JoshuaAke]

We’ve lost the ability to discuss sex apart from consent vs. exploitation. I do feel for her, because she clearly feels (and has been) degraded; but she chose it. This is the result of telling women that sexual freedom is empowering. It isn’t; it’s degrading. It’s SELF-degrading.

@MattWalshBlog Matt, I am shocked and disappointed that you haven’t already added “passably handsome” to your bio.

This dangerous verdict is only going to inspire copycat heroes

[Ed McCray @Real_Ed_McCray]

This is why I do what I do. These films, specials, songs, radio shows, cartoons, TV shows, etc are part of Americana, tradition, & our heritage. They deserve to be rediscovered by all! :)

Watching another Rankin/Bass classic tonight. I never grew up watching this one, but I wish I had. It’s a gem.

[Ed McCray @Real_Ed_McCray]

1970 brought us Santa Claus is Comin' to Town,one of the best Christmas specials ever produced.This story is a Christian parable about religious conscience making it one of the first casualties of PC culture. It pulled from network TV in the early 80's you'll soon understand why.

[Joshua Ake @JoshuaAke]

@Real_Ed_McCray I never grew up watching this one, probably because it had already been taken off the air before I came along. So I think I have only seen it a couple times in my life. I decided to check it out again when I came across this thread. What a gem of a film. Thank you for this.

[Joshua Ake @JoshuaAke]

An interesting thread about a Christmas classic. Sixty years to the day since it first aired.

[Ed McCray @Real_Ed_McCray]

This year is the 60th anniversary of Rankin/Bass' Rudolph special & here's some things you've may never seen.When it debuted in 1964 Rudolph ended with the version on the left.People wrote in complaining & this additional scene replaced this great character epilogue from 1964.

[Joshua Ake @JoshuaAke]

Every single aspect of this story is absolutely disgusting. This is like a Russian Nesting Doll of perversion and disordered morality. https://t.co/jOro3FoxJw

[Greg Price @greg_price11]

What Dafna Yoran is doing to Daniel Penny is nuts and absolutely illegal.

She moved to dismiss count one (manslaughter) because count two (criminal negligent homicide) couldn't be considered if there was a verdict.

They're bending the law to try and squeeze a guilty verdict for somebody who saved people on a train.
